    This cute, non-weedy Oxalis makes a wonderful front of the border plant! It’s happy in sun or shade, but the foliage will turn a lovely shade of deep red & grow in a more compact manner given full sunshine. It’s covered most of the year in pretty yellow flowers & grows to about 6” high by 2’ wide. Native to South America the stems & leaves are succulent. Great trailer for containers, too!
